The tyrant alcohol...

"The tyrant alcohol wielded a double-edged sword over us: first we were smitten by an insane urge that condemned us to go on drinking, and then by an allergy of the body that insured we would ultimately destroy ourselves in the process."

Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions, p. 22

Final Thought:

"We of A.A. need each other to stay sober. Our individual sobriety depends on the group, and the group depends on us...Without unity, the heart of A.A. would cease to beat and we would be left in loneliness once more."
